What is your question?
the water and coolant is slowly disappearing from the reserve tank. 4 days ago the reserve tank was full and now it is almost empty. The temperature guage never goes up, but it dose seem that th engine is getting really hot. The major hose from the radiator to the engine was recently changed because it was bloated. How can I tell if the engine is getting hot or if a head gasket might blow. The reserve gets lower and lower.

If your coolant temp. gauge didn't reach red or high temp, the cyl.head should be OK. Add coolant, go to a shop and ask for a cooling system pressure test. During the test they should be able to pinpoint a leak - which seems to be a slow one. If there was no coolant loss prior the hose replacement, one of the clamps might be a bit loose and leaks some coolant. Zee
